Lovely pattern

The pattern was easy to follow and the instructions were helpful.

This is my second version of the Noella. This time using The Dreamer cotton fabric from Lewis & Irene. It's a very oversized shape so I cut the cropped version in an S everywhere except the length which I cut at XXXL. I cropped the sleeves by 15cm and extended by 6cm each side making the sleeves a more boxy shape. Really pleased with my make. Thanks again Fold Line for stocking Juliana Martejevs.

Not sewn anything in a couple of weeks , but needed a white top for today so last night I made up the Tessuti Myka top .
It is a boxy design however I cut a 12/14 and it was absolutely enormous. Re cut down to an 8 ( I’m normally a 14 ontop )
Love the simplicity of the pattern a very quick make ideal for beginners.
Love the dart detail on the sleeve and the sewn hem detail .
I made this in a white French Terry fabric .
You realise how well your sewing as come on in a few months I couldn’t ever get a stretch neckline right but really pleased with this

I liked the look of this blouse and the fact that it could be made in a variety of different fabrics. I bought a piece of very vibrant silkette fabric that wasn’t expensive and thought I’d do away with a toile and go for it. The pattern is relatively easy to sew and there is a video tutorial but the translation from the original french is a bit strange. I thought I’d bought the new updated pattern but wasn’t sure after the video if I had the old pattern or the new,
The blouse came together well but I totally missed the piping step which I will do on the next one. The blouse has a high neck and I think next time I’ll lower it at the front, it was just a little high for me. I like the fact the blouse is relatively fitted but not tight. My fabric had zero give in it and frayed quite a bit so that added a challenge.

I really enjoyed making these trousers, not only are they ridiculously comfy to wear but the process was also really enjoyable.
I haven’t worked with stable knits much, I used a ponte Roma and it was a joy to work with, it handled beautifully and kept its structure once sewn.
The instructions are very clear and easy to follow and the pattern fits perfectly straight out of the pattern, the only adjustments I had to make were to shorten it for my 5’2” height. The stripe reminds me of 90s trousers and it’s such a fun nostalgic throwback.
I really recommend this pattern, I’ve already worn mine so much since making them and I’m already planning another pair.

Very easy to make, instructions were very clear, the only thing that I would say is that (at least on the size 10) on the back side panels of the dress the pocket markers are only 13cm apart from one another when they should be 15cm apart, it's an easy enough fix but I was a little confused and thought I had done something wrong at first.

Made in a very lightweight denim as a bday present for my sister. This pattern was easy to follow. I would consider myself an advanced beginner (comfortable with darts, scared by buttons and zippers) and I found the steps simple and instructions clear. This was my first time working with binding, but it did not need to be cut on the bias so it was easier to make and turned out great. We found the folds stuck out/budged a bit around the hips. I added a small bar tack to the place where the fold met the pant leg (near the knee) and that helped keep everything flat. Also made a version with shorts that turned out cute but I didn't get a picture. This is my second Ready to Sew pattern (first was the Pekka jacket) and I am a fan!

I bought this pattern because I liked the Archer pants so much. Here, the insert is on the outside but there is still scope for economising on fabric by cutting some of the pieces across the grain, especially in the striped canvas fabric that I used.
I followed the pattern apart from using binding on the pocket turnings, inside waistband and at the leg hems.
Unusually, I didn't make any notes on the pattern envelope because everything was A OK.
Could have cut the back pockets across the grain too.
Might try the quilted version when I decide to go somewhere cold!

This is a great pattern, clearly laid out with all the right notches and with clear instructions. I used 10oz denim which was easy to cut accurately although it created some issues with layers of fabric. I mainly used clips instead of pins. I finished all the seams, facings and hem edges (to avoid two quarter inch turns) by binding with a cotton remnant and, in addition, used that material for the under collar. Could have also used it for one side of each side slit but I think the neck facing needed the denim body in order to stabilise the collar.
It might also be possible to size up and then flat fell some seams. Hard to do in the "right" size as the given seam allowance is only half an inch.
I did add top stitching on the sleeve to shoulder seams to make sure the seam lay the right way but omitted some from under the arms as the bulk of the fabric made it tricky to do. (I did try but unpicked it.)
Lots of good tutorials out there about which feet help to top stitch accurately. I used jeans thread on the side which was going to show.
I'll admit I didn't make a toile. I pressed the horizontal seam up instead of down and then trimmed it without thinking which means the join at the front is wavy. Hopefully, you wouldn't have spotted that if I hadn't said.
I am actually likely to wear this "cloak of visibility" on deck. Will be a beacon when I pop it over!

I love this top. Made one for myself out of a vintage table cloth. I then wend on to make 2 more as gifts for friends. Great stash busters and little or no fitting required. I just lowered the side hems so they came just below the bust.

Really easy pattern to follow and sewed up easily and includes finishing as you go along (French seams etc). I made it from double gauze which has been in my stash for over 10 years! Sadly it came out bigger than expected (possibly 2 sizes too big!), I shortened the sleeves but it swamped me! Have given to my neighbour. Think I just about have enough fabric left to make another smaller one.

I made the top from a remnant of soft denim coloured cotton. I had to trace some pieces as they are printed on both sides of the page. It has interesting but straightforward details: back gathered on to a yoke, interfaced neck facing, added cuffs and a hem. The instructions are accessed through a QR code. They are clear and chatty with the designer's opinions on how to go about things.g. recommending not to clip the curves. I think this would be good for a beginner. It hasn't:replaced the Remy raglan as my favourite top but I would make it again.

This was my first attempt at a welt pocket but the instructions were really clear to follow and I did take the process slowly. I have struggled with the instructions on other M&M patterns so was pleased this worked well, although the bulk of the fabric meant the finish on the pocket was not as crisp as it could have been. The fabric was a piece of wool left over from another project and the lining is a very old piece of cotton repurposed from a favourite shirt. Very happy with the result and I might make a lighter weight version from linen for the summer.

It really is far too beautiful to be called a magazine, with its photography and interesting articles. It has been my perfect accompaniment to sitting in the garden with a G&T!
